Former VP Chief of Staff Marc Short said if rioters had gotten any closer to then-Vice President Mike Pence on Jan. 6 “there would have been a massacre that day in the Capitol.” Short was interviewed Monday night by ABC News’ Linsey Davis just days after he testified to a grand jury in the investigation into the attack on the Capitol.
